Tips when playing Ryze:

Use Overload’s passive to optimize for maximum damage or maximum survivability.

Spell Flux’s short cooldown allows it to be used to spread Flux to many enemies.

Ryze can move and cast other spells while Realm Warp is charging without cancelling the portal.

The story of Ryze:

Widely considered one of the most adept sorcerers on Runeterra, Ryze is an ancient, hard-bitten archmage with an impossibly heavy burden to bear. Armed with immense arcane power and a boundless constitution, he tirelessly hunts for World Runes—fragments of the raw magic that once shaped the world from nothingness. He must retrieve these artifacts before they fall into the wrong hands, for Ryze understands the horrors they could unleash on Runeterra.
